## FAQ

### Do I need to install anything locally?

No, the server is remote and hosted by Apollo.io, so you do not need Node.js, Docker, or a local installation.

### How does authentication work?

Authentication is handled through Apollo.io OAuth. You sign in with your account and authorize access from your MCP client.

### Does using this server cost anything?

Actions run with your account's permissions, and some actions like enrichment consume Apollo credits.

### What AI applications can I use this with?

It works with MCP-compatible applications such as GitHub Copilot, Cursor, Claude Code, Claude Desktop, and Claude Cowork.
